The current issue of New Scientist features one of my new puzzles. Double Base is the Brain Twister (puzzle of the week).

Notasu unwrapped.

A few people on Logic Masters (logic-masters.de) deduced the rules last week.

Notasu: a puzzle wrapped in a puzzle.

This is version 2. Version 1 remained unsolved after circulating on the internet for two weeks. Version 2 is version 1 with extra clues.

Please consider forwarding to anyone who might be interested.

No-one has managed to solve this yet. Can you be the first to do so?

Notasu is my latest puzzle. The name comes from 'Sudoku, but not as you know it'!

Time for a summer break.

My thanks to everyone who has done a puzzle over the past eight weeks.

Don't forget the web apps hold back catalogues. So, over the break, you can tackle any puzzles you missed.

DeCamp is a surname of French/Dutch origin. For people who โ€˜worked the fieldโ€™. So, equivalent to the English โ€˜Farmerโ€™.
